half step down
Chords: D, F#m7, G, Em7
E
Early morning by the riverside,
F#m7
Saw an old man waiting for a bite,
A F#m7
We started talking and he took me back in time.
E
He said I was young, and thought I'd always be,
F#m7
Then I woke up, now I'm 83
A
There's so much I missed, oh how I wish
F#m7
I could get back all that time I wasted.
Chorus:
E
I see the tears of a young bride
F#m7 A
The morning that we had our first fight.
F#m7
I should've held her tight.
E
And on the day that my momma died,
F#m7 A
I hung up the phone and never said goodbye.
Don't let it slip on,
F#m7
Don't let it slip on,
E
Don't let it slip on by.
Verse 2
E
Well, he looked up, tears in his eyes.
F#m7
Said I'm not sure if you were looking for advice.
A F#m7
There's just something about you that reminds me of me.
E
It ain't easy always looking back,
F#m7
But it seems these days that it's all I have.
A
What hurts me the most is knowing what could have been,
F#m7
And if I listen real close sometimes I can
Chorus
E
Hear the sound of my little boy
F#m7 A
Saying, daddy can you please come play with me?
F#m7
But I was too busy.
E
Then one day, my baby grew up and went to war.
F#m7 A
I never thought he'd be gone in the blink of an eye.
So don't let it slip on,
F#m7
Don't let it slip on,
E
Don't let it slip on by.
Bridge
F#m7 A
I shook the old man's hand and I thanked him.
F#m7 A
And I drove home as fast as I could go.
E
Just to let her know...
E
That I need her,
F#m7
That I love her,
A F#m7
That I'm never gonna let another moment like this slip on by.
E
Don't let it slip on by.
E
We're only here for a little while,
F#m7 A
And God gives us only so much precious time.
So don't let it slip on,
F#m7
Don't let it slip on,
E F#m7
Don't let it slip on by.
A F#m7
Don't let it slip on by.
